My problem has been solely in live mode. Maybe some lag here and there in build/buy. I don’t play with any mods or custom content, but I can only play for maybe 10 minutes before severe lag kicks in. I’ve never had an issue running the Sims 4 on this computer ever, it’s only since around knifty knitting that it began.
@MarieKennaGaming Please describe in more detail what you see, since "lag" can mean different things to different people. Does it make a difference if the active household has knitting items present, e.g. a basket in inventory? Have you tried repairing the game in Origin? If not, please do so now: open your Origin game library, right-click on the Sims 4 icon, and select Repair.
If that doesn't help, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.
